Just wanted to say that some internationals may get calls later (for them) - I got a call after hours Chicago time on R1 decision date which was the next day in my timezone. I do think they try and call internationals early unless you're Asia Pac.

Thanks for sharing that Sapphireka. Just wondering when the Asia Pac admits get calls?

You'll hear on Tuesday if you are admitted. Most of the decisions on the decision date are WL or Dings with a few exceptions

Just imagine what it will be like tomorrow. I remember R1 decision day, I was in the middle of a meeting with my boss and a consultant and I jumped off my chair when I received the call. Then the entire weeks turns non-productive...

i bet 99,9% of people on this thread (including me!) are hoping to get a phonecall today and not tomorrow or the day after (or never). But i'm sure it's pretty unlikely... although, there's always room for hope :)
Chicago is my last resort..., so no serious work for me until wednesday!

You guys can add me to the roadcall as well: I'm a R-2 applicant, got the interview invitation at the beggining of February and was interviewed two weeks later. I worked hard to get a good GMAT grade (740, 49Q, 41V) but don't know if that was enough. I really want Booth.

Brazil + 740 .... I'd say odds are more in your favour than not.

Hey Rhyme...do not play with fellow applicant's psyche...

BTW, I logged on Community Directory yesterday and found there were 700+ admits and thought "well...they accidentally leaked the R2 admits"...no they did not!! They just added the EMBA, XP, AXP and EXP admits to the list...
They adcom has not even updated those who withdrew their offer yet...
